    I’m still working on Sentinel, which is near completion. I’m waiting to hear back about a juried show. I’m not sure if I’ve been accepted into it or not, or whether there is more for me to do to be selected. I emailed, no answer. Since I’m so fond of putting flowers in the sky,…

    At other peoples suggestion, I have moved my blog from Myspace, to here. Having finished “Louie’s Spot”, I am moving on to the next drawing.
